Author's Note:
A Drow's Dilemma began as a one-on-one roleplaying project and has been converted into a chapter-by-chapter format for weekly posting with the permission and assistance from my partner. It will contain a considerable amount of sexual themes such as femdom, lesbian, straight, 'reverse' rape, BDSM, group sex, romance, and other themes. The main goal of the story, however, is to tell an epic tale of adventures, gods and goddesses, fae, and nymphomaniacs. This episode and every episode to come will be available for free on Literotica for the foreseeable future. All characters that engage in sexual or suggestive situations are mentally and sexually mature: the human equivalent of 18 for their race.

Lilith
Aster stared wide-eyed at the entity that just spoke to Caleldir and the mad Eromiajin Demigoddess. It was as if she was looking in a mirror - if the mirror was enchanted to give one the image of what they could be if they were a deity. While Aster wore nothing, this newcomer wore an ornate crown, a necklace, and four rings. All were divinely potent artifacts so holy that even the untrained eye could recognize how powerful they were, and the trained eye recognized Lilith's personal regalia.
"My Lady," Aster said in awed reverence as she dropped to her hands and knees in a low bow. Most of the audience followed suit: the succubi out of reverence for their mistress, and the non-succubi because Lilith was a powerful goddess, and mortals had little other choice when divinity was present.
The First and Greatest of the Succubi, the Goddess of Seduction, Sensuality, and Lust, the Grandest High Mistress of All Dominations, the Demon Lord of the 69th Layer of the Abyss, etc.,&, etc., sighed as She knelt by her granddaughter's side. "Get up, Vilinixia. Return your faith to me and I can cure your mental unrest."
Sniffling, Vilinixia gingerly took Lilith's hand, then grasped it strongly, her composure slowly returning as the goddess pulled her to her feet. "It is a good thing that you invoked my name for your vow," Lilith said pleasantly. "It showed me where you were."
"You left me there so long!" Vilinixia sniffled. "Why didn't you do anything to release me?"
"As you grow in power as a goddess, you will come to understand," Lilith said gently. "We are often... prevented from doing things. In fact, it is very difficult for us to do anything in this world at all. I am here under special circumstances."
Vilinixia nodded, not looking at her grandmother, but also not letting go of her hand. When Lilith pulled out of her grasp, the ancient succubus demigoddess pulled her hand back and examined it, contemplating.
While this exchange took place, the newly freed Dahlia timidly joined her master and sister-familiar. She was clearly awed by her goddess's appearance and wasn't certain about what she should do. Aster wasn't able to tear her eyes away from the goddess of succubi, but she did take the older familiar's hand and gave it an affectionate squeeze. They would have to celebrate their reunification later.
Lilith turned to Caleldir, grinning broadly and spreading her arms. "Caleldir! It is a pleasure to meet you, little brother! How about an embrace for your big sister?"
"You are naked," Caleldir said after a moment.
"Yeah," Lilith said, pretending to be confused. "What is your point?"
"Why do you look almost exactly like Aster?" Caleldir asked, still suspicious of the succubus goddess. "And why show up now?"
"One has to have an Avatar," Lilith giggled. "I am no mere Demigod who can wander the Material Plane without worry. A goddess as powerful as I cannot appear on this Plane in Her true form. And the only reason I can appear here in my Avatar is that the gods of this plane are scrambling after the God Deafener finally went down and because a new Demigod is about to ascend." Lilith stepped in, wrapping her arms around Caleldir, leaning in to let her lips brush his ear. "Isn't that right, soon-to-be God of Harems and Libraries?"
Caleldir gulped. Lilith giggled and pulled away, looking at him with obvious lust. "Sadly, I can't join what promises to be the greatest harem in the universe since I am already married. I have my harem, of course, but I am not the Goddess of Harems."
"I care about the library part more," Caleldir fussed, looking away. He took a deep breath. "Why...why do you look like Aster?"
"You don't like pink?" Lilith pouted. She pulled Aster into an embrace, making the young succubus's eyes meet hers. The goddess smiled and gave Aster a long, deep kiss. "Aster is special to me," she said in a whisper, though Caleldir and every succubus on the field heard it with perfect clarity regardless of how far away they were. "Her erotic purity, selfless dedication, delighted lust, and innocent sensual delight is an ideal for all my daughters to look up to, and for older succubi to treasure."
Lilith gave Aster another smile. "I designed you for my brother, in fact." This time, her voice was only heard by those who were very close. "I guided your development to make you a perfect partner for him, exactly the sort of young woman who could make him truly fall in love with all my daughters. I am glad that you decided to embrace your destiny with such joy. I have made many mistakes, but you are a great triumph, and I am proud of you, my dearest daughter."
Overwhelmed, Aster could only look to her toes and turn a more brilliant shade of pink. She wanted to be humble - to argue that she did have personality flaws and could not possibly be a 'triumph' - but realized that that would be a slight to her goddess.
"Hah, well I guess I'll always be playing catch-up," Dahlia remarked. "And me, the first familiar!" She shook her head, a rueful smile on her face. "I suppose I should get used to being out-classed again."
The succubus goddess let Aster go, slightly pushing her into Caleldir's embrace. She sinuously glided over to Dahlia, opening her arms to offer her an embrace. Dahlia looked very confused, but who was she to deny the goddess of succubi a hug? So, she fell into Lilith's arms, which gave the goddess another smile. "Theona, my darling. Do you think that Aster was the only one I pulled towards her destiny? I knew and loved you when you were a desperate, too-young prostitute on the streets of Contanti: that first time you cried out to me to help you. I saw the fire in your soul despite your tragic losses and harsh circumstances; I guided you out of slavery and through your acting and senatorial careers. I remember every one of your prayers to Me, though you have long forgotten them." She dropped her voice to a whisper, tickling Dahlia's ear. "Do you want to remember who you were, Imperial Courtesan? This is not the first empire you have built."
As the succubus goddess spoke, her hands ran up and down Dahlia's back, caressing and grasping with divine finesse. It was uniquely overwhelming, and even more so when Lilith's girthy tail pushed inside her womanhood. "I have been guiding and molding you towards your destiny all this time," Lilith continued while gently (by succubus standards) fucking Dahlia. "It was not a coincidence that, when my little brother called on a succubus, it was you. Aster I intended to be his lover, but you, I intended to be the ruler of my children in this world. Ever since that first prayer you gave me in the slums, I knew that one day I would make you my Empress. From the slums to the imperial palace, from an undeserved and unjust traitor's death to my loving Abyss. You have stumbled and fallen, made mistakes, been at times shortsighted and stupid, but you kept going. You built a great empire and will build another, even greater one. Know that I love you too, my daughter, and am proud of what you have become, and even prouder of what you will be."
